Monsieur Brossard at Chateau Chinon............

.

Truffled this morning.. Wonderful old invoices and cheques dating from the late 1800s and early 1900s. All addressed to Chateau Chinon. They came from an old quincaillerie hardware store in Autun. Wonderful old sepia ink scrolled script. I shall leave them in the batches I found them in!!!Does this mean someone is truffling in the attics of the Chateau Chinon?Me thinks a little detective work is in order.. Dons cloak and sneaks through turret door..

I know Chateau Chinon, I live nearby. Mitterand was the Mayor and remained so even when he was a president. It's a small town on the edge of the Morvan and still is a little bit more administrative than some other sleepy towns around here. I shall be off the the Brocantes soon as it's the first on my calender, don't know whether I will find such a trove as you have, cross my fingers XX
